Local to Glenrothes
We cover Glenrothes and the postcode districts KY6, KY7. We also work in nearby Kirkcaldy (5 miles), Cupar (9 miles), Dunfermline (14 miles), St Andrews (17 miles).
For homes towards Edinburgh and the Lothians, Edinburgh is around 17 miles away. Across Scotland, extensions follow Scottish planning and building standards, including the building warrant process, which we build into the programme from the start.
Will the council need to approve it?
In Scotland, householder permitted development rules (Class 1A for single-storey ground-floor extensions and Class 1B for extensions of more than one storey) allow some smaller extensions without a planning application, within limits on depth, height and distance from the boundary. Conservation areas and listed buildings are more restricted.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
In Scotland a building warrant from the council is needed before work starts on almost any extension, and a completion certificate is issued when the work is accepted. Building standards are set in the Scottish technical handbooks.
Applications are decided by your council as planning authority.

Matching tiles is harder than it sounds. We source reclaimed or closest-match tiles where the originals are no longer made and agree samples with you before ordering.

Questions people ask about pitched roof extensions
Who do I contract with for a pitched roof extension in Glenrothes?
Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which designs and manages the project and the build teams who carry it out.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Glenrothes, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Do you cover all of Glenrothes?
Yes. We cover Glenrothes and the surrounding parts of Fife. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
How much does a pitched roof extension cost?
Our guide range is about £1,810 to £3,430 per m² including VAT, a little more than a flat roof because of the roof structure and tiles.
Can I have a vaulted ceiling?
Yes. A vaulted ceiling with roof windows is one of the main reasons to choose a pitched roof. It needs insulation between and under the rafters to meet the building regulations.
